Key Plot Points

But the most disappointing aspect is the wasted potential of the "Girls Rules" concept. The movie sets up a premise where the girls are going to manipulate and play the game, but the movie is too nice to let them be ruthless. It reverts quickly back to a standard, safe rom-com formula.
